WARNING – Disconnect power to spreader before servicing.
CAUTION – Do not attempt to service control unit. It is a solid-state electronic device and has no user serviceable
parts; any attempt to do so will void warranty.
CAUTION - The electric motor is sealed and should not be taken apart for any reason. Disassembly of the motor
will void warranty.
CAUTION – When replacing parts use only Meyer Products approved parts or risk voiding warranty.
Use dielectric grease on all electrical connections, before and after each season and whenever the plugs are
disconnected. This will ensure long life for the contacts and prevent corrosion.
Wash unit after each use to prevent material build-up and corrosion.
Periodically inspect the motor seal located around the shaft and look for cracks or splits. If seal is damaged
or missing contact the manufacturer for a replacement.
At the end of the season thoroughly clean all parts and paint or oil all bare metal surfaces (except for hopper and
spinner which are stainless steel and do not require painting). Using a paste wax on the inside of the hopper will
help material flow smoothly. OIL SHAFT AT MOTOR BASE TO PREVENT RUST DURING NON-USE.
